Stay 7 villa

Best people, so kind

Spacious, well equiped

La familia muy atenta en todo momento

De host Thushara, zijn vrouw Dasni en hun zoontje zijn ontzettend lief, behulpzaam en gastvrij. Vanwege de drukte rondom oud & nieuw waren er geen scooters te huur in de directe omgeving. Thushara heeft gelijk voor ons een scooter geregeld. Als we vragen hadden, hielpen ze ons direct. Overigens bracht Thushara elke ochtend thee of koffie langs met een broodje en/of fruit. Dat was erg lief. Thushara en Dasni nodigde ons uit om tijdens oudjaarsavond bij hen langs te komen in hun woning. We hebben gezellig wat gedronken en er stond wat lekkers op tafel. Dasni liet ons foto’s zien en het was heel erg leuk om een kijkje in hun leven te krijgen. De kamer was erg prettig. Er was meer dan voldoende ruimte en de airconditioning was top. Ook konden we onze kleding wassen in de wasmachine. Thushara en Dasni, dankjewel voor alles. Als we ooit terugkeren naar Sri Lanka, dan komen we met alle liefde naar jullie terug.

L’hôte et sa famille nous ont accueilli comme des reines ! Communication très facile en anglais. Le propriétaire se propose de faire tuktuk jusqu’au centre ville et jusqu’à Hiriketiya si besoin, c’est vraiment top. Petit-déjeuner surprise la matin, avec le délicieux thé préparé par sa femme. On s’est régalées ! Encore merci pour votre hospitalité ! Le logement n’est qu’à 5mn en tuktuk du centre ville d’Hiriketiya, très pratique pour être loin des touristes mais profiter de l’attrait de la ville tout de même. Le wifi fonctionne correctement.

Pas d’eau chaude dans l’appartement, ce qui est assez courant au Sri Lanka donc ce n’est pas un red flag

Thushara and Dasni were so welcoming since the first moment that we arrived. Thusara is an excellent host looking after the guests anytime and trying to accommodate anything. He recommended places to visit even offer us to give us a lift as he has a tuktuk. They invited us typival sri lanka lunch and dinner, delicious and very generous of them :) The bed and pillows are very comfortable and everything is spotless. The location is very convenient if you want to be away from crowds although 8 min drive from Hiriketiya beach and 3 min from the Wewurukannala Vihara temple. If we are back to Sri Lanka we would definitely come back here! Thanks for everything

All was perfect.

Me and my partner had a great experience the hosts are great here. We were welcomed on arrival and got brought breakfast in the morning which was very nice and the property is a good size with good size living space. It’s very close to popular locations and the host can offer you transport to these places at low price highly recommend staying here

Amazing Experience! I spent 7 fantastic days at Thusar’s place with his family, and as a solo traveler, I couldn’t have asked for a better stay. They welcomed me with great hospitality, making me feel like part of their family from day one. I spent a lot of time with them, exploring the surrounding areas and discovering not only the most famous spots but also hidden, non-touristy places for a truly authentic experience. The apartment is spacious, very clean, and well-lit, with all the necessary amenities and a well-equipped kitchen. The location is perfect: very close to the largest Buddha statue in Sri Lanka, yet far enough from the city chaos to enjoy some peace. An unexpected bonus? There’s a super friendly barber right downstairs! It’s also very easy to reach by bus and train, thanks to the new station in Wewurukannala. I highly recommend this stay to anyone looking to explore Sri Lanka in a genuine way. Thank you again, Thusar!

Big room, large bed, ac

I am very sorry to bring the good rating down, but the description has too many things mentioned which are not there, or are wrong - this is for us an absolutely NO Go! The description says: boasting lake view, accommodation with a private beach - fact is there is no lake and no beach nearby, the nearest beach is 1,6 km away. The view is onto a busy road. Also the mentioned quiet neighbourhood is not at all quiet. The apartment is listed with a terrace/balcony, but there is none to be used! There is no place at all to sit outside. The fotos show a nice black sitting set, in reality it is ugly and totally worn out. Also the size of the apartment is wrong, it is not 350m2 but maximum 50m2. The described fully equipped kitchen is also not like this, no gas, no pans, only a few plates, therefore no possibility to cook. The mentioned washing machine was also not there, nor was WIFI installed, which is mentioned to be free in all areas. To mention is that the owner put some effort in it to make up for it, brought a washing machine during our stay and installed WiFi on our last day. He also drove us with his TukTuk to the beach for free. Still we strongly recommend that he corrects the description to what guests can really expect and what is really offered.

Excellent service and the owner was very much helpful to us. The place was very clean and tidy. Will definitely go there next time as well

The property is very spacious. The most spacious room we’ve had in Sri Lanka. The hosts are such lovely people. The owner delivered us tea and some pastries in the morning, which was not included in the booking. Just a kind gesture. The bed is huge, super comfortable. And the location is in close vicinity to town and the beach! Definitely recommend.

Everything was great!

the property was beautiful, absolutely huge and really clean! it had a kitchen and living room area plus an en-suite and a double bed. it also had air con and a mosquito net. the owners were absolutely lovely, they were super helpful and even invited us to have breakfast with them in their family home and also took us on a short tour around hiriketya. if you’re looking for somewhere with your own space and facilities but close to the town and beach then this is perfect for you.

we loved everything!
